Facebook feed/wall posting - the share link is missing

Games
#1

Not sure if anyone else has seen this but I’m able to successfully post to the the users facebook wall/feed. I’m using this code to do so:

[lua]if fbCommand == POST_PHOTO then
local attachment =
{
name = “Game Title Here”,
link = “http://www.gamelinkhere.com”,
caption = “sub title here.”,
description = “Detailed description here.”,
picture = “http://www.morvid.com/imagelink.png”,
message = userFBMessage, // pulled from pop up
actions = json.encode( { { name = “Learn More”, link = “http://www.gamelinkhere.com” } } )
}

facebook.request( “me/feed”, “POST”, attachment )[/lua]

The problem is that when this posts (and yes, it does work) I do not have a “share” link next to the learn more link at the bottom of the post. On most posts you can click this and share it with you friends. Is there a way to enable this?

Thanks,

This looks cool! Will it just post or do you have to use some sort of app id too?

You still need authentication. I’m not using single sign on or anything like that. I’m doing it the old way. But I setup these properties and just call request and it works. You do need to declare an appID.

That’s really awesome. How do you authenticate it? Could you post the full code for that or explain how you do it?

Can I create a publication without creating a Facebook application?. I WANT MY ACCOUNT FROM POSTING. THANK YOU! [import]uid: 59020 topic_id: 20844 reply_id: 82237[/import]

not sure what you just said but I think you are asking if you can post something to facebook without registering an app. The answer is NO.

You must register an app with a valid facebook account: developer.facebook.com -> click on apps

Then follow the code examples in the corona folder. Or look in the code share for other examples. As soon as I can release my code I will. I have a tutorial about posting to the walls. [import]uid: 27681 topic_id: 20844 reply_id: 82251[/import]
